I feel like this type of language is standard for artists (and startup founders oddly enough). By that I mean they tend to over inflate their scope/impact. This product is going to change the WORLD!! My art is having a huge impact on SOCIETY!!
I think your assessment is correct, but that type of broad/overblown language is not uncommon at all.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoHaving written some of these statements I want to point out this is done because of the impact requirements of funding programmes.

- BHSPitMonkey 3y agoI don't think the public puts a lot of stock into artist statements one way or the other. "Good" art can have eye-rollingly self-important artist statements on the placard just like "bad" art. We all know it's just a part of the game the industry plays.
